The Effects of Surface Roughening Techniques on Surface and Electrochemical Properties of Ti Implants

This chapter deals with the effect of commonly used surface roughening techniques for rapid osseointegration on surface and electrochemical properties of dental implants. Dental implants prepared by smooth machining (MAC), double acid etching (DAE), sandblasting and acid etching (SLA), Ti plasma spray (TPS) and anodization (ANO) were included, and their electrochemical properties were compared to untreated commercially pure titanium (cpTi). The treated surfaces demonstrated great differences in surface roughness, morphology, elemental composition and oxide type. Open circuit potential (OCP) and anodic scan potentiodynamic curves showed that electrochemical properties of treated surfaces are inferior to untreated cpTi in an original Ringer’s solution and a Ringer’s solution enriched with NaF except from the case of ANO where the electrochemical properties were enhanced. Galvanic action between dental implants and prosthetic superstructures and more importantly between the treated root and polished collar of dental implants is also discussed

Elemental, Morphological, and Corrosion Characterization of Different Surface States of Co-Cr Alloy for Prosthodontic Applications

In this study, four different groups were prepared in a cast model of an arch that received four implants made with a Co-Cr dental alloy. The surface of each group was prepared by four different surface treatments, including sandblasting with Al2O3 grains (SB), conventional finishing with dental burs (CF), milling with a CAD/CAM device (MIL), and electrodischarge machining (EDM). The characterization of the roughness parameters, morphology, elemental composition, and electrochemical properties of a dental Co-Cr alloy in different surface states exposed to an oral environment were reported. The electrochemical properties were tested with open-circuit potential (OCP) and anodic scan in Ringer’s solutions. The results of roughness parameters, elemental composition, OCP, corrosion potential and pitting potential were statistically analyzed by one-way ANOVA and the Tukey-Kramer multiple- comparison test at 95% confidence level. The roughness parameters classified the surfaces from smoothest to roughest according to the following order; CF, MIL, EDM, and SB. The CF group has the best corrosion resistance followed by the EDM, MIL, and SB groups

SDRP JOURNAL OF BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING 2016 Research Electrochemical characterization of vascular bare-metal stents. A novel approach modifying the mini-cell system

ABSTRACT: Electrochemical characterization of stents can be seen as a key to assessing their biocompatibility. The aim of the present study was to investigate the electrochemical properties of bare-metal stent surfaces. The minicell system (MCS) was modified to record open circuit potential (OCP), cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) on NiTi, FeCrNi and CoCr stents using 1%NaCl, PBS and serum. Surfaces were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray microanalysis (EDX) before and after electrochemical testing. CV showed passivity breakdown of FeCrNi and CoCr in 1%NaCl. Corrosion properties were inhomogeneous. Several surfaces of FeCrNi showed progressive activation and passivity breakdown while pitting was detected by SEM. EDX showed a decrease in Fe, Cr and Ni and an excessive presence of Cl. Corrosion rates (vcorr) were partially significantly different between the examined materials and electrolytes (e.g. using 1%NaCl: vcorr[FeCrNi]=2.08x10 -2 ±1.14x10 -2 μm/y vs. [NiTi]=9.41x10 -3 ±1.87x10 -3 μm/y; p<0.001). EIS circuit diagrams indicated oxide films on passivated metal surfaces. The modified MCS is promising to assess the biocompatibility of stents via electrochemical analytics. Overall, the vcorr of all stents were below the required limit values

Suitable Electrode Choice for Robotic-Assisted Cochlear Implant Surgery: A Systematic Literature Review of Manual Electrode Insertion Adverse Events

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The cochlear implant (CI) electrode insertion process is a key step in CI surgery. One of the aims of advances in robotic-assisted CI surgery (RACIS) is to realize better cochlear structure preservation and to precisely control insertion. The aim of this literature review is to gain insight into electrode selection for RACIS by acquiring a thorough knowledge of electrode insertion and related complications from classic CI surgery involving a manual electrode insertion process. METHODS: A systematic electronic search of the literature was carried out using PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane, and Web of Science to find relevant literature on electrode tip fold over (ETFO), electrode scalar deviation (ESD), and electrode migration (EM) from both pre-shaped and straight electrode types. RESULTS: A total of 82 studies that include 8,603 ears implanted with a CI, i.e., pre-shaped (4,869) and straight electrodes (3,734), were evaluated. The rate of ETFO (25 studies, 2,335 ears), ESD (39 studies, 3,073 ears), and EM (18 studies, 3,195 ears) was determined. An incidence rate (±95% CI) of 5.38% (4.4–6.6%) of ETFO, 28.6% (26.6–30.6%) of ESD, and 0.53% (0.2–1.1%) of EM is associated with pre-shaped electrodes, whereas with straight electrodes it was 0.51% (0.1–1.3%), 11% (9.2–13.0%), and 3.2% (2.5–3.95%), respectively. The differences between the pre-shaped and straight electrode types are highly significant (p < 0.001). Laboratory experiments show evidence that robotic insertions of electrodes are less traumatic than manual insertions. The influence of round window (RW) vs. cochleostomy (Coch) was not assessed. CONCLUSION: Considering the current electrode designs available and the reported incidence of insertion complications, the use of straight electrodes in RACIS and conventional CI surgery (and manual insertion) appears to be less traumatic to intracochlear structures compared with pre-shaped electrodes. However, EM of straight electrodes should be anticipated. RACIS has the potential to reduce these complications

Discutindo a educação ambiental no cotidiano escolar: desenvolvimento de projetos na escola formação inicial e continuada de professores

A presente pesquisa buscou discutir como a Educação Ambiental (EA) vem sendo trabalhada, no Ensino Fundamental e como os docentes desta escola compreendem e vem inserindo a EA no cotidiano escolar., em uma escola estadual do município de Tangará da Serra/MT, Brasil. Para tanto, realizou-se entrevistas com os professores que fazem parte de um projeto interdisciplinar de EA na escola pesquisada. Verificou-se que o projeto da escola não vem conseguindo alcançar os objetivos propostos por: desconhecimento do mesmo, pelos professores; formação deficiente dos professores, não entendimento da EA como processo de ensino-aprendizagem, falta de recursos didáticos, planejamento inadequado das atividades. A partir dessa constatação, procurou-se debater a impossibilidade de tratar do tema fora do trabalho interdisciplinar, bem como, e principalmente, a importância de um estudo mais aprofundado de EA, vinculando teoria e prática, tanto na formação docente, como em projetos escolares, a fim de fugir do tradicional vínculo “EA e ecologia, lixo e horta”.Facultad de Humanidades y Ciencias de la Educació

Electrochemical characterization of cobalt-based alloys using the mini-cell system

The aim of this work was to investigate the electrochemical behavior of cobaltbased alloys of different compositions using the mini-cell system (MCS) and to test the sensitivity of this technique in the detection of variations in the electrochemical behavior caused by the different compositions of cobalt-based alloys. Methods. The electrochemical measurements were performed on two cobalt-based alloys, having a small content of gold (B¨arlight and Gold Core); one cobalt–platinum–ruthenium alloy (Porta Smart) and one classical Co-based alloy (Wironit), in two different electrolytes, 1% NaCl and phosphate buffered solution (PBS). Results. Based on I versus E curves, enhanced pitting corrosion capability was observed for the cobalt-based alloys, especially for those with lower chromium content and with the addition of a small amount of gold. The alloying of Co with Pt and Ru (Porta Smart), and the standard Co-based alloy do not show any critical instability; in contrast, a small addition of Au enhanced the pitting corrosion activity and reduced the corrosion stability. For higher alloy stability, a minimum 30% atomic ratio of chromium in the alloy composition is necessary. Furthermore, it was shown that MCS has sensitivity for the qualitative comparison of the alloys as well as in the electrochemical characterization of each alloy. Significance. Electrochemical measurements are essential to assess the quality of an alloy.

The Influence of MgH2 on the Assessment of Electrochemical Data to Predict the Degradation Rate of Mg and Mg Alloys

Mg and Mg alloys are becoming more and more of interest for several applications. In the case of biomaterial applications, a special interest exists due to the fact that a predictable degradation should be given. Various investigations were made to characterize and predict the corrosion behavior in vitro and in vivo. Mostly, the simple oxidation of Mg to Mg2+ ions connected with adequate hydrogen development is assumed, and the negative difference effect (NDE) is attributed to various mechanisms and electrochemical results. The aim of this paper is to compare the different views on the corrosion pathway of Mg or Mg alloys and to present a neglected pathway based on thermodynamic data as a guideline for possible reactions combined with experimental observations of a delay of visible hydrogen evolution during cyclic voltammetry. Various reaction pathways are considered and discussed to explain these results, like the stability of the Mg+ intermediate state, the stability of MgH2 and the role of hydrogen overpotential. Finally, the impact of MgH2 formation is shown as an appropriate base for the prediction of the degradation behavior and calculation of the corrosion rate of Mg and Mg alloys
